Due to his longevity in this industry, Joel Schacter has reasonable experience in almost all areas of real estate. He has been successful in land assembly work, rezones and development consulting, commercial sales and leasing. His greatest joy, however, is still sitting across the kitchen table from a young couple assisting them through the process of buying their first home, townhome or condominium or with a Mom and Dad discussing their downsizing and retirement options.
Joel thrives in meeting new people and turning a business relationship into a more personal friendship that long outlasts the completion of any one transaction. He enjoys learning about who they are, where they came from and what their dreams and aspirations are and then seeing how he can be a part of that. After so many successful years in the real estate industry, there are very few circumstances that have occurred of which Joel has not been able to work through a creative win-win solution. He loves the challenge of meeting his client's goals.
Joel is a widower and he has 2 sons, 3 grandsons and one granddaughter. While others enjoy golfing in their free time, he would rather spend it playing with his grandchildren, travelling to explore new parts of the world, visiting family or occasionally dreaming about completing his private pilot training. When not doing one of the above you can find Joel volunteering at the Langley Food Bank as a Director of the Board or working with our less fortunate residents on Friday food distribution days. He also actively volunteers in his church and in the Langley community.
